CAAArt Museum

For young artists in China，Hangzhou is heaven.Most of Hangzhou’s minor galleries are concentrated along Nanshan Road，and the CAA Art Museum is at the heart of this conglomeration at the main campus of CAA.The prestige of CAA（as well as a stellar alumnibook）gives the museum a rich collection of established modern artists like Lin Fengmian，Huang Binhong，Pan Tianshou，Lu Yanshao，and，really，the list could go on forever.TheCAA Art Museum is practically a hall-of-fame for China’s greatest artists，but themuseum also features the latest works of China’s best up-and-comers who are using Hangzhou as a lens for their genius.Of course，the best part of the CAA is thatit’s surrounded by all those minor galleries that make a day in the district worth having.A nice stroll down Nanshan Road will give you everything you need to know about the state of art and culture in China today.

China Academy of Art，Xiangshan campus China Academy of Art main campus Inna Art Space If you’ve got a hankering for Hangzhou’s avant-garde，look no further than Inna Art Space.This art compound has seen the contemporary art scene in Hangzhou blossom over the past decade，and the artists based there will tell you that they wouldn’t trade it for all the fame in Beijing’s 798.Ever since its founding in 2008，the compound has been loyal to its very early aspirations of providing a nurturing space for young artists to grow.The owner，Inna Xu，often describes it as a space that“matures with the artists.”While Xu’s words may be true，this area is also a proving ground for artists wanting to make their mark.If you can make it in Inna Art Space，with its constant fuel of creative energy，then you can make it in the art world.
